Florida's Natural Championship hosted by Nancy Lopez
The Florida's Natural Championship hosted by Nancy Lopez was last played in 2006. Due to lack of sponsors, the meet has been cancelled in 2007. The Eagle’s Landing Country Club in Stockbridge, Georgia had been hosting this meet since its inception in 1992. It was then known as the SEGA Women's Championship. As the sponsors changed the tournament’s name also changed. Below is a list of names by which this championship was known over the years.
SEGA Women's Championship (1992)
Atlanta Women's Championship (1993-94)
Chick-fil-A Charity Championship (1995-2005)
